Re: Arelith - Hak Server
You understand that, in the system you're suggesting, it'd take around 150% of the experience to get to level 10 as it currently does to get to level 30. You get that, right?Shadofury wrote:2e numbers
Let's assume that it takes the average player 4 months to get to level 30. There's some people who do it in a month or two, and some people who take around a year, but let's settle on that number for the sake of the argument. Under the system you're proposing, it'd take the average player a little under fifteen years to get to level 30.
Do you see why that might be a little silly?

Re: Arelith - Hak Server
Why is people reaching max level such a problem for you?

I'm gonna be honest, I see absolutely zero story benefit to requiring everyone to kill an exponentially larger amount of orks.Shadofury wrote:im not saying use these exact numbers. its a thought. There are people who level faster and slower.
but what your not seeing is it will give more leeway because people are not level 30 in 4 months
Ive seen time and time again its much harder to balance things when your having to deal with max levels, this would stretch it out some

Re: Arelith - Hak Server
A server died recently from putting in draconian leveling rules, just saying.

Re: Arelith - Hak Server
No one's changing the leveling rules. That would be silly.
Re: Arelith - Hak Server
Negative XP server, everyone starts at 30 and goes backwards to 1
Re: Arelith - Hak Server
We're getting a little off track here with this discussion of leveling, but it really makes no difference what the actual XP required to level is because on that server you could also get 200+ XP per kill (on the low end) so when you dial that back down to Arelith numbers it's relative. Granted, on that server you weren't really meant to solo anything except for the most basic starter quests, and you would go to the aforementioned DM events to get big chunks of XP (20k or more in one go).

Re: Arelith - Hak Server
Oh, it was just explained to me that hax can be added with a simple .exe file. Let's do it. I'm all for the hax.
Re: Arelith - Hak Server
I am also 100% for hax. They'll add thousands of new options for just visual upgrades.

Re: Arelith - Hak Server
In a short list of things that I'm drooling for:
Everything Will Be Tweaked (every command can be handled in a more smooth way, descriptions added, feats, paths turned into actual classes, etc).
Dynamic Monster Models.
Tilesets Layouts.
Combat Animations.
Visual Effects.
Models! Actual myconoids and not slimes with legs!

Re: Arelith - Hak Server
What about a lot of new RP animations? New idle stances for the matter, or walking style?

Re: Arelith - Hak Server
Can't people add new animations client-side already? I'm almost certain that I trialled modified combat animations as an override at one point before getting rid of them.
Re: Arelith - Hak Server
Yeah, but isn't it like only you're seeing those animations, and others aren't?
Re: Arelith - Hak Server
Yes, but others will see default animations rather than nothing. It isn't like tile sets, where something is being created that is wholly non-existent in the base game.
Unless, I suppose, there are multiple options for fighting styles for every weapon, and you get to pick which animations you use (that is, not all longsword users fight the same).
If that's what people are talking about wrt animations, disregard my previous post and sign me up because that sounds rad.

Re: Arelith - Hak Server
The combat animations comes in a hak form that's meant to tie in with the vanilla crafting menu, letting you choose your animation style. When used on a multiplayer server, it means other people see your character using the style you chose.
It's certainly one of those things I wouldn't mind seeing supported.

Re: Arelith - Hak Server
That's definitely what I'm talking about.
Have you seen the fancy style the river slavers have, holding one sword behind, dragging it low?
It looks way better on a character.
Monks that actually have multiple styles! MONKS THAT DON'T JUST PUNCH/KICK!
The possibilities. IMAGINE THE POSSIBILITIES.

Re: Arelith - Hak Server
Things I'd love to see on a hak server:
More emotive animations for things, like standing with your arms crossed, lounging in a seat, dancing or playing music. Hell, even updated walk and run animations would be possible (and amazing!).
Visual effects for people who are drunk or high.
New weapon types, like the Heavy Pick, as well as weapon balance changes that can be reflected on their examine tabs.
ACTUAL INSTRUMENTS THAT CAN BE HELD.
More RP items that can be held like weapons, like books, tankards of ale or food articles.
Customised tilesets that have been modified for particular areas (The rigid vanilla tilesets irritate me to no end)
Actual mage RP where they theoretically able to experiment with spell creation.
-Advanced-
The ability to play different musical notes (even through a dialogue menu) then store them in a sequencer. Bards are then able to playback the musical sequence, and therefore create and play their own music ingame.
